Mr. Conrad Proposes To His Ex-wife Again

Although the two matters seemed to be solved, it wasn’t the end.

It was because the last matter was much more important than the previous ones.

Moreover, in those doyen’s eyes, they had shown some respect to Darnell since they made concessions in the previous two matters.

As for the last matter, they wouldn’t make any concessions.

Hilbert said, “As for the matter that you mentioned before, about allowing Dolores to come back to the family, it’s an important matter and we can’t decide on it by just several sentences. We don’t have full considerations in many aspects.”

One of the doyens immediately chimed in, “That’s true. These rules are set by our ancestors. How can they be easily changed simply because of a person?”

Another doyen echoed, “Moreover, as for Archer’s visit to City N, it’s essentially different from Dolores’ leaving. She admitted to being erased from the family tree back then and insisted on leaving with that man, and we tried to stop her, but failed. Isn’t it ridiculous for her to come back now?”

After their censure, Hilbert slightly raised his hand to stop them.

He took a glance at Dolores who had been kneeling on the ground with her head lowered, “Do you remember what you said before leaving the James family?”

“I wish to be erased from the James family and I won’t step into Riverside again.”

“It’s good that you still remember it.” Hilbert then asked, “So why do you come back now?”

Dolores replied, “I didn’t fulfil my duty as a daughter when my father was alive. He passed away not long ago and I want to pray for him for three years.”

Before the others could express their opinions, Dolores continued, “I won’t ask you to add me into the family tree. I just wish I can pray for him in the ancestral hall.”

Darnell said, “Now that aunt has said that and this was grandpa’s last wish, I think you guys won’t have any objections, right?”

Those doyens, who wanted to oppose it just now, all swallowed their objections and looked towards Hilbert.

They knew deep down that since Hilbert planned to let Elaine marry Darnell, probably he wouldn’t offend Darnell thoroughly.

Hilbert said, “Well, but you have to sleep on it. Once we agree on this, you should kneel here every day in these three years. It’s not simply to show your filial piety, but also to reflect the mistakes you made.”

Clarence slightly frowned and took a step forward, but Stella clasped his hand tightly.
